MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

15 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 BMW 3 Series (SP52 YPX) between December 2005 and June 2017.

The record contains 12 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 13 June 2017 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (7 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Brakes (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues), Windscreen (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 10 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Offside Front suspension has excessive movement at a wishbone pin or bush console bush (2.5.A.1c)”; “Nearside Front suspension has excessive movement at a wishbone pin or bush console bush (2.5.A.1c)”; “Nearside Front Anti-roll bar linkage has excessive play in a ball joint (2.4.G.2)”.
